All goalkeepers are frustrated centre forwards..

With just seconds remaining, the game between Sunderland and Reading was into the fifth minute of added-time. Reading won a corner.Adam Federici left his goal and came up for the last effort - and scored.
Much the the delight of the mascot and others.
And there were these immortal words from Steve Coppell.
"It was a good take. He had to get up off the floor quickly to finish, which is a skill he would have learnt in goalkeeping practice. I’ve seen him score for us before in a pre-season game at Bromley when he played outfield. He’s a good outfield player. All goalkeepers are frustrated centre-forwards anyway."
